Great communication and daily photos/videos. This was our first time leaving our dog, so she didn't eat for the first day we were gone. We collaborated on some problem solving, and she decided she could eat again with the help of some peanut butter. House was well cared for, as well.

We had Allison watch our two tiny dogs for over a week. She checked in with us everyday to give us updates. She was very easy to get a hold of and responded immediately. Our pups were happy and looked very well cared for when we returned. Our condo looked like we hadn’t even left. I would highly recommend her!

Patricia is the best. We can enjoy ourselves and not have to worry about our fur kids when we go out of town. It makes a world of difference. She did house sitting last time and took the boys out for walks and even brought in our mail and hauled in a bunch of packages on our porch. So glad we found her. She is patient with our dogs, one of them takes a little longer to warm up to others. We will be repeat customers for sure!

I could not recommend Summer enough as a pet sitter and person! She watches my kids and my dogs for me... and occasionally my cat! Summer has been my go-to pet sitter ever since she was in high school, and now I use her services when she is back in her hometown for the summer or breaks! She makes my two dogs feel loved and comfortable, and I completely trust her to stay in my house whenever I leave. Bonus--Summer cleans my house before I come back, too! She is a great person and a great dog sitter! Both of my dogs get excited when I merely say her name, and they both go crazy whenever she stops over!

Kaitlyn did a wonderful job taking care of our 13 yo female dog in our home while we were away. Kaitlyn took care of all of her needs, including medication and left the house without a trace she was there. Would definitely rebook with her.

Hailey is great. She saved us when our other house sitter had a family emergency. She sent adorable photos of our pets while we were gone and left the house very clean. She even wrote us a nice card and left it on the counter with our keys… and most importantly the pets were calm and happy when we got home. I highly recommend her! Thank you so much Hailey 😊!! A+

Paul was a fantastic pet sitter for our family this past week while we were out of town. He gave our dog, cat, and fish more love and attention than they typically get with our busy schedules. Our dog has struggled with sleeping when being boarded and having her normal environment kept her very relaxed and happy. Paul sent photos everyday with updates to let us know their status. A small bonus was Paul kept an eye on the house and grabbed our mail and packages and kept them put of the weather. Paul was reliable and trustworthy. Will definitely be using him in the future!

Dawn has been a personal friend of mine for over 15 years and cared for my pets on many occassions while I've been gone. I've always been very happy with her care she has provided for my pets. She provided me with updates while I was gone sending me daily pictures of my pets to let me know they wre okay. Dawn is a very loving pet owner herself who provides exceptional care for my pets in my home and I would highly recommend her as a living pet caregiver.

I can’t say enough good things about Caitlyn! I work a lot and sometimes have very long workdays if I have to do a double shift. Caitlyn always makes sure that my three dogs are happy and content. I have three dogs, two German shepherds and a Great Pyrenees. They can be a lot for people to handle sometimes but Caitlyn has done fantastic! I’d highly recommend for anyone else who wants their own pets taken care of like family!!

About: I love animals, I have had pets since I was 4 years old. I always consider them part of my family. Your pets will be in safe hands with me, believe me I know the struggle to trust someone with my dogss when I'm away so I got you. I'll be there to pamper them. I just will take of them as if they were my own. I'm actually working a full time job, but I'm always available during evenings and nights. And most of weekends or very early in the mornings. I can take care of your dogs in your home so they feel comfortable in their own environment. I can stay overnight or do visits.

About: I’ve had dozens of people rely on me in the past to care for their dogs - walking, dog park, baths, feed - I’ll do it all! I currently work full time from the comfort of my home with my 6 little loves. I’m available mornings & evenings for drop ins but can do mid day as well! My go-to is taking pups to the dog park whether that’s alone or with friends to let them explore and have fun! We enjoy the outdoors so our pups love hiking, swimming, and playing fetch!!

About: I’ve had cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, and horses growing up. Having a wide range of animals growing up has helped me learn what a pet is wanting and needing. I’m currently a college student, my evening can be flexible as well as my weekends! Willing to work with owners to create a balance that works for me and your pets. I would prefer to have your pet in your home! I think that will be best for your pets safety and mine too. I’m willing to do what the owner is wanting for their pets comfortability.

About: I have always loved pets and loved taking care of them. I am now a junior in college, majoring in biology in hopes of taking care of animals. I enjoy even the most mundane parts of caring for animals, such as feeding them, taking them on walks, or even picking up poop (I know, it’s weird!); being able to play and cuddle with them is a perk! I work part time with a pretty loose schedule, so I am able to be pretty lenient with my schedule and taking care of your pet. I love to greet the dog by petting them as I walk in the door. After that I let them outside because they will most likely have to go. Once they’re done I check to see if they are running low on food or water and if they made a mess in the house. If they did I clean it up and then play/cuddle with the pet, whatever they’re most comfortable with.
